However, this will be balanced nicely by the blast-furnace quality fire Turbs will have going, where he will reduce 900 pounds of premium hardwood firewood to a cup and a half of a very fine, grey powder each night. Turbs also uses the fire to signal the International Space Station, and it has the secondary function of melting down the aluminum cans for easy transport home. Between the two, you can remain quite comfortable if you adopt a "rotisserie spin" at about 2 rpm.
Ethanol-based antifreeze is recommended, however too much will cause you to wander around in only a t-shirt blabbering on about how "its not that cold!". If you drive a diesel, you will be well served to remember to plug it in at night so it will start the next day, lest you be trapped till the spring thaw, which I've been informed that Amana is planning on having one in 2019.

The Amana rally is nearing 70 registered units!
We're only about 20 away from breaking our own record of being THE BIGGEST rally outside of an actual FROG organized event!

No offense to NoHandle but take your wife as a partner. She personally handed me my walking papers in the tournament.
This was me every time she threw  followed by

Like Derrike Cope at the Daytona 500 or Dexy's Midnight Runners in the music world, some times relentless, unwavering mediocrity is rewarded by one brief shining moment of greatness. A moment that is quickly lost, never to be captured again. Leaving the victim back in the depths of futility where they can only curse the bitter memory and lament about 'that one time'.
Sadly, that was pretty much my wife throwing bags at Amana last year. I love her dearly, but if you had her stand in an empty field and throw bags into the air, I wouldn't bet on her hitting the ground 3 time outta 4.

Wow, that first part really grabbed me personally. Written with deep insight. I can so relate...
Brother, might you be available to write my obit? 
If you want the job we can work out the details in Amana. I hope to go by way of natural causes though!
